I remember when Britney Spears called Ruth Chris her favorite restaurant in the mid 2000s. It was the place to be. I knew this Ruth Chris was around Jersey City and we decided to finally pay it a visit. We went on a Friday night around 6:30... There were probably only two tables of people, you definitely don't need a reservation. Maybe they're busy during lunch with the surrounding office buildings? Our server was really sweet. We shared the shrimp and fillet, added a lobster tail, and baked potato. Everything was tasty, nothing was memorable. They are very accommodating to kids, so our daughter had a good time. read more

Ruth's Chris and Olive Garden sit on opposite ends of the Darden dining portfolio. The sad truth is that I've always had a much better experience at the come as you are family joint featuring endless breadsticks and the Dean Martin soundtrack on heavy rotation. Yeah, the steak sizzles but the service at this white linen Titanium Card pleasure palace is universally desultory and mailed-in. When I darken their door, I always feel like Joe Pesci in Goodfellas... "Am I a clown, do I amuse you?" Geez, how about a smile and some indication that hospitality has meaning here. Certainly not my favorite. Three stars for the steak read more

Greeat time and experience at this location in Jersey City as the staff was also great. I had a steak and mash potatoes and the food was amazing. I love my time here and looking forward to coming again read more

I came here for Happy Hour. Definitely a beautiful space and very comfortable chairs in the bar. My friend and I shared the zucchini fries and we both had the chicken sandwich with Brie. The zucchini fries were delicious-crispy crust & a flavorful dip. 5 stars! The big disappointment was the chicken sandwich-dry and flavorless. I normally get steak (delicious), but it was happy hour & I was trying to be healthier. I'll come again & will definitely get the burger! I also had the Manhattan & old fashioned. Not the best cocktails-think it may have been choice of alcohol. The service was good-attentive & friendly. read more

Had the stuff chicken which was good, just a little salty with all the cheese. Tried the mushrooms and cream of spinach and both were good. My favorite thing was the creme brûlée. Always get that. read more

I had a great meal here. I had the 6 oz filet which was cooked to medium rare perfection, and it was very good (but nothing special for a steak house filet). I added the grilled lobster tail and it was excellent. I started with the wedge salad and I'd say that's the classic, amazing steak house wedge. It was one of the best I've had. I had an excellent glass of wine from a solid, but not exceptional wine by the glass list. The service was very good. I would definitely go back if I were in town again and I was looking for a classic steak house dinner. read more

TERRIBLE LOCATION! THEY RUINED OUR THANKSGIVING! I love Ruth Chris and every Thanksgiving my family dines at one. I NEVER experienced such TERRIBLE service in my entire life as I did yesterday! For starters they brought us cold coffee! Three of us ordered French onion soup after 45 minutes they said they ran out of French onion soup and came with tomato soup! Ten minutes later the table across from us had French onion soup! Appetizers took 1.5 hours to come to our table! Dinner came 2.5 hours after ordering! We never even got our entire order either! They brought dinners out with no sides! Only one person received their sides! After complaining and after everyone finished their dinner 30 minutes later we received two sides of the sweet potato casserole and one lobster Mac and cheese. We were still missing one additional side of lobster Mac and cheese and one sweet potato casserole and we never received it either! When dessert came we were missing two cheesecakes which we never received either! The food we did receive was excellent besides the carrot cake, but the service and the whole experience was TERRIBLE! John our waiter was a nightmare! He blamed it on the kitchen. All his tables in my area I can hear them complaining about him as well! Do yourself a favor and dine at a different location! read more

Absolutely incredible. The most luscious, fork-tender, buttery filet I've ever eaten. In true Ruth Chris fashion, it came sizzling on top of fragrant butter. The potatoes gratin were cheesy and savory (a bit oily but go big or go home!). We ordered the lemon drop and added strawberry to it - delicious and STRONG. Lastly, we ordered a devil's sin cake to celebrate my birthday. It's a flourless chocolate and was closer to a chocolate mousse than a traditional crumb cake. It was rich, slightly bitter, and perfectly sweet. The interior is beautiful and spacious. Went on a Friday night and had no trouble being seated. Service is excellent and made us feel taken care of. There are paid street parking areas nearby. read more

We went out for dinner this past Sunday to celebrate my niece's birthday. They kindly played the game we requested, which was a nice touch. The food was delicious, well-seasoned, and arrived at the perfect temperature. Drinks kept flowing throughout the evening. Our waiter, David, was very attentive to our table. When I paid the bill, I left a generous tip of $100.00, but David never returned to say thank you. That was quite rude! read more

This was my first visit to Ruth Chris in Jersey City. We were celebrating the birthday of a friend. Parking is somewhat nearby, we parked in the Newport Mall parking garage and it costs about $20.00. The service we received from the host, servers and Manager was warm and friendly, attentive and professional. The food was good, the lobster bisque was warm when it arrived and cooler off quickly so by the time it was midway it was cold. I ordered the fish and shrimp as my main, which was very good, served hot and it was moist and delicious. For the side dish, we shared the lobster Mac and cheese, it was good, not great. For dessert we shared the bread pudding, which was nice. read more

I was there on the 10 Not my first time at Ruth Chris, just this one, compared to Weehawken I was disappointed bacon in the Brussel Sprouts was dry as jerky, leaving the entire dish dry, the potatoes Au Gratin was worse than Stoufer's out of the freezer aisle, the cheese was blander than Cheez Whiz. We didn't say anything because it took so long for the food to come out. read more

It's Ruth Chris. Consistent and legit. Fancy vibes inside but as expected. Quick attentive service with all the prime greats on the menu. Can't go wrong here. Just pricey but as it should be. read more

First, Crystal, the manager, was amazing, she is super friendly and really made sure everything was going smoothly. Our waiter, Marlon, was excellent, super attentive and helpful without being over the top. The food was delicious. You have to try the Artisan Chicken Sandwich. We also got the Zucchini Fries, which were way better than we expected (crispy and not greasy at all). The Spicy Shrimp had just the right kick, and everything came out hot and fresh. The Pomegranate Martini?......Best one I've ever had. Not too sweet, just super refreshing. I'm never disappointed here!!! read more

Had an amazing experience at this location. We opted for the Ruth's Classics set menu which included appetizer, steak entree, side, and dessert for each person. The house salad had an enticing dressing that had me wolf down the entire thing quickly. My steak came out the perfect temperature and was very juicy. For dessert, we had a slice of cheese cake that was quite satisfying as well. I also must acknowledge the service that evening. Our server had great attention to detail and made us feel right at home. It was a very nice tough for the restaurant to have that level of service! read more

The GENERAL MANAGER at the Ruth's Chris location in Odenton, Md. attempted to justify allowing food servers to use their bare hands (no gloves or food picks) to garnish (lemons, cherries, olives, dried fruit etc) diners drinks. Why are food servers garnishing drinks and not the bar tenders? The GENERAL MANAGER did absolute nothing after he was informed, and continued to try to justify the behavior. The conversation turned into me justifying why I was reporting what I saw. POOR HYGIENE is not justifiable at any restaurant, let alone at a restaurant who suppose to represent fine dining. I will not dine at Ruth's Chris again. read more

Ruth's Chris Steak House - My turkey was amazing ! - Steakhouses Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Really turned off by this restaurant after being a big fan prior (pre Covid and Covid time). Came here with my family and spent $700. My in-laws were at the bar and spent $35 on 2 drinks before dinner. They tried to pay and we're told to sit and they (restaurant would bring bill to the table). Once at the table they asked 2 more times as they didn't wanted to added on to the final bill and were told not to worry about it. Fast forward after spending $800, the restaurant looked up the credit cards phone number and told us they were gonna charge us for the $35 unpaid bar bill. TACKY and cheap and they were told this on the phone especially since we tried to pay it 3x. As for the dinning experience, empty on a Friday night. Some of the silverware and glasses were dirty upon seating and had to be replaced. Steaks infused with so much butter. Expensive. Bottle of Pinot Grigio $98. You are better off going to fire and oak. My family and I will not be back. read more

The food, service and ambiance was amazing. We came on Sunday for my cousins birthday around 4:30pm and it was the perfect time. We were here till around 7 and it wasn't crowded at all. Our servers were nice and answered all our questions. The food was yummy!!! My favorite appetizers so was the crab cake and the spicy shrimp. I had the mule and it was tasty, the merlot was good and I head the lemon drop was also tasty. We are awaiting our streaks but so far I give them a 5 start their cleanliness and great customer service. read more

Returned to Ruth's Chris restaurant in the Newport area of Jersey City and had another great meal. This time we started with the Mushrooms stuffed with Crabmeat which was very good. For our entrees we had the Ribeye and the Lamb Chops - both were cooked perfectly to a medium rare that we had requested and were wonderful. Our server Giovanny was friendly and helpful and one of the managers stopped by a couple of times to check on us which was a nice touch. Looking forward to returning again in the future when we are in the area. read more

Went back for a second time last night and can honestly repeat word by word of my first review from back in 2022 . Our server Marlon was the most professional and amazing ever . Even when we told the hostess Ash that we wanted to sit together she was extremely accommodating. The food in the place is simply amazing . If you have a special occasion or just want some great quality food and service this is certainly a place for you . Hands down.. 10 stars :) read more

Awful, overpriced and pretentious. Dinner for 3 was $400. The steak was good. The seafood tower was so sad. Not at all what you'd expect. Asparagus were 5 thin asparagus on a plate. No frites. Desserts were very very sad and premade- frozen. I will never go there again. read more

My family made a 6:15pm reservation for yesterday, May 11, 2025, to celebrate Mother's Day. We arrived and checked in at the front desk at 5:47pm. We were told to have a seat and that we would be seated closer to our reservation time, which was fine. 6:15pm came and went, and we weren't seated. After asking about our reservation a couple of times, and eventually being told erroneously by one of the hostesses that we never checked in, it took more time to get everything straightened out. We were eventually seated at 6:45pm. Carlos, our frazzled but kind server, greeted us and took our order (we placed drink, appetizer and entree orders at the same time as we could see others around us upset and complaining about the wait times). We received our appetizer first, then drinks. Another 35 minutes goes by and we hadn't yet received our salads. When asked, Carlos apologized and said that the kitchen was very backed up. The salads eventually came, but with no dressing. Another 5 minutes goes by before we receive salad dressing. Then, at 8:15pm, when we still had not received our entrees, we asked to speak with a manager. Carlos pointed out the manager, who we would eventually come to know as Robert Rosado. We waited a while to talk with Robert who avoided our table, passing by multiple times without stopping or making eye contact despite Carlos saying "this table would like to speak with you". Robert completely ignored us and busied himself going back and forth throughout the dining room. It was odd. Seeing Robert's lack of engagement, Carlos eventually brought a woman to our table whom he said was the general manager. When we told her what was going on and explained how bad our experience was, she said she would go to the kitchen and check on our order. She eventually came back and said that our order would be out next. 15 more minutes pass and we get some of our entrees and sides, but not all that we ordered. Another 7 minutes pass and the rest of our order comes out. By this time it was almost 9:00pm. We were all exhausted and no longer in a celebratory mood. Other tables around us were also unhappy and the general mood was somber. We decided to box our food up and take it to go, completely defeating the purpose of dining out. As we were leaving, Robert Rosado had the audacity to flippantly say "it's too bad this wasn't a good Mother's Day" with a smirk. We were shocked! I stopped, circled back to him and asked if he was the manager, and told him how rude and disrespectful his comments were. He quickly back peddled and said, "I was talking to her" and pointed at his co-worker. Then he said, "well, at least you got discounted food". Unbelievable. As if a discount alleviates the disappointment and ruined holiday and time with my family. The gall and the nerve. Robert completely lacks empathy, is tone deaf, and does not know how to read the room. How insulting for a manager to behave in this manner. He should have been apologetic, yet he had a mocking tone, stance and disposition. He offered no apology, which, anyone with the slightest bit of common decency, given the circumstances, would have freely given. He needs to be fired expeditiously as he is a horrible example of a leader. I am shocked that he is even employed there. After our awful experience at the Jersey City location I checked the other reviews and to no surprise Robert Rosado's name came up multiple times for his rude and insensitive behavior. Is the unemployment rate that low in the area that you keep him employed because you can't find a replacement? He is beyond awful, and your customers deserve so much better. Over the years my family has celebrated special occasions at several different Ruth Chris locations from Minneapolis, to Cleveland to other New Jersey locations. After last night's experience I can confidently say that we will never patronize a Ruth Chris establishment again. read more

I was a little disappointed how the food, with the exception of calamari & blueberry mojito, was lacking in taste. I mean I'd expected the salmon to be great but it lacked flavor and a little bit inedible for it appeared drizzled with olive oil as an afterthought. I know, I know, we should have ordered the filet and steaks but still, this visit at a Ruth's Chris was a big disappointment! My hubby and I stayed at the Westin next door and wanted to treat my younger sister who is a first line worker (nursing asst) in the area- she chose Ruth's Chris upon hearing how great this place was only to be letdown. Worst of all, our main waiter did not offer any recommendation and provided less than adequate service. If not for the other waiter who subsequently assisted I would have gelt bad about the 20% tip! I wanted to support and expected good food and service. Now I know the only Ruth's Chris that provides great food & experience was the one in Crystal City, VA! The few others failed in comparison! I'd hate to write them off but---disappointing... read more

Ruth's Chris Steak House - Ruth Chris seating view - Steakhouses Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

The ambience of the restaurant is very nice. Quiet, intimate, soft lighting...we were celebrating my husband's birthday and the staff did a good job in acknowledging the occasion. There is little to no nearby street parking but a parking garage conveniently located in the vicinity. I had to request a replacement wine glass as the one originally at my place setting was soiled. There were a couple of items ordered that did not come out before were ready to end our dining experience. Those items were graciously comped. There was an overzealous bus boy that kept trying to take away our dishes before we were done with them. But, on the plus side our server was very attentive. read more

Amazing ambience, staff and quality menu items. Now I know why they're famous for their steaks. You don't even need a steak knife because it cuts like butter. Portions are quite generous and most people got a doggy bag. Caesar salad is in an oval bowl with generous amounts of cheese and dressing in a chilled dish. Garlic mash for one was enough for two and the 11 ounce filet steak was also enough for the next day as well. Chocolate flourless cake was like eating pure fudge heaven topped with a fresh strawberry and raspberry ganache. read more

I have been on the GO recently, so enjoyed a relaxing dinner in JC tonight. I got the chef's spring special: Caesar salad, shrimp & filet mignon, creamed spinach, and bread pudding. Topped off with a cab. Everything was tasty; I particularly love the creamed spinach, salad, and shrimp. Of course the steak was cooked perfectly. I can't complain. The portions are large, so I took quite a bit home. I come here often after a long day at work. Customer service for the win!!!! read more
